Cranbrook Food Recovery, Farm Kitchen searching for new home.

Cranbrook Food Recovery and their Farm Kitchen are looking for a new home.

The organizers behind both programs received unexpected news last month that they would need to relocate this summer.

The two Community Connections Society of Southeast BC programs have been located in the same facility as the Cranbrook Food Bank since 2021.

Food Programs Coordinator Meredith Funston says the move is due to the challenges Food Banks across Canada are currently facing.

Funston says this challenge should be a great opportunity for the two programs.

She says they are ideally looking for a facility that was previously a kitchen to make sure there isn’t lots of costs getting a building up to code.

Anyone with ideas or thoughts on locations the programs can move is asked to get in touch with coordinators at cranbrookfoodrecovery@gmail.com.
